ReadSpeaker

ReadSpeaker allows you to listen to iKörkort.nu's content. With just one click the text is simultaneously read aloud and highlighted so you can easily follow along, regardless of device or where you may be. This makes our content more accessible and makes it easier for you to learn the licence theory. As a user, you don't have to download anything.

How does it work?

Activate ReadSpeaker by clicking the Listen button.

Click the Listen button to activate!

ReadSpeaker also allows you to:

• Select text and click the listen button in the pop-up menu that appears to have the selected text read.
• Hover over a paragraph of text to have it read out automatically.
• View a clutter-free version of the web page with text in your preferred font, size and color as it is read aloud and highlighted.
• Download an audio version of your content for offline listening.
• Translate a selected text to a number of languages and have the text read in the target language.
• Personalize reading speed, highlighting colors, and more.
• Select a word and find its definition in the dictionary.

Clear instructions on how to use each feature are provided in the Help Tool, which is found in the toolbar. Click on the menu icon (circled in red in the image below) to bring up the toolbar.
